Post lot text

Through poise and graceful movement, the ballerina embodies femininity and elegance. This emblematic motif first made its debut in the early 1940s at the famed French jewelry house, Van Cleef & Arpels and appeared as beautifully crafted as brooches until the late 1960s. Born from a collaboration between designer Maurice Duvalet and manufacturer John Rubel, the ballerina theme was inspired by Louis Arpels’ passion for classical opera and ballet. Duvalet studied the grace and form of ballet performers and with the skilled craftsmanship of Rubel, the first set of ballerinas were fashioned in the New York workshop. These charming and timeless brooches depict ballerinas in various graceful poses, often with rose-cut diamond faces along with elaborate and brightly colored gem-set costumes. Today, these enchanting and rare jewels remain highly sought-after by collectors as an iconic design by a famed jewelry house.
